I was putting on my mascara the other day, getting ready to look presentable, to face up and to face the world, to go to work…when Kitreena asked me a rhetorical question.
“Mom, are you putting that thing on to make your eyeslashes look longer?”
I gave her an almost nod and an insincere smile.
“You mean…” (she starts her every other sentence with “you mean…” these days), “you are trying to make them look longer than MINE?”
My jaw dropped. I didn’t know there was a competition.
